day-to-day operations of government and the political process.
   (b) The institute shall develop and sponsor seminars, extension
courses, and symposia on topics directly related to public
administration in local and state government.  The institute shall
serve as a nonpartisan training center to provide elected officials

certificates for completion of course and program modules.
   89260.5.  Instruction at the institute shall be provided by the
faculty of the public administration or political science programs at
